[urq] My UrQ is slow..

[qshipq at aol.com]

 Or...? One might just give a hole filled raft and a walmart kiddie paddle to the guy and chuckle some.? Eric, the '91 200 transplant donor of which he speaks is turn-key VEMS equipped and tuned, and one needn't dig deep in the archives to realize this is the same guy that had a couple 034EFI systems over the years, and built the LT1Q.? And having driven Robs specific urq many times, and having personally built the wiki-quick turbo on it, slow is only relative to the Honda that likely was rotrexed.? Then again, he could always just drive the tdi next time, but I say whatever motivates one to tackle the project!

Sawsalls last longer than those industrial grinders, eh Roberto?? 

Cheers!

Or....you could do a bit of head work ,new turbo and convert to 034  
EFi and double your power!  I had a similar moment after getting my a$ 
$ handed to me after an auto-x.  Just too much lag with the K-26.  I  
will admit, I have tweaked a few things, but the car still looks very  
stock to the un-trained eye.  Having some new found power and the  
ability to dispatch pretty much any car out there now, gives a whole  
new satisfaction to driving my car.  The thought that my 25+ year old  
car can still hold its own is quite satisfying and I still get the  
satisfaction that I am driving a rare classic.

I would not let it get to you, think of it this way, you have  
something he
will prob never have...there is always be faster cars out there.

Enjoy your car for it being the best in its time and that its becoming  
more
and more rare.

Or perhaps just the driver is, but this early morning after giving the  
girl
(le'fem Tomato)  a good washing I was out for a brisk AM rolling-dryer
session.

I flat out could not shake this Accord with a silly wing and a
teen-something lurking behind the wheel. When he had finished toying  
with me
- he screamed past like I was standing still. Lordy do I hope that  
thing had
a turbo in somewhere in front of the folger's can muffler...

To compound the ascertation of slow feeling UrQ'ness I also have learned
that it is just a bit down on torque relative to the V10 TDI in my  
Touareg.

So it is with the sound of one hand smacking myself atop my head that  
the
tear-down of the 200 begins today. The goal for this weekend is to have
motor and tranny on the ground.

Now where did I put that sawzall?...
